Overall
Joker marks the opposite-positioned enemy as his combat target and dynamically shifts his own faction to gain an elemental advantage against them. Hitting a factionally disadvantaged enemy knocks them down and applies a weakening debuff that amplifies all incoming damage. His normal attacks build toward bonus gunshots aimed at the combat target, maintaining consistent single-target pressure. The core payoff is All-Out Attack — when enough enemies are simultaneously controlled, he triggers a massive team strike dealing heavy damage to all enemies, usable a limited number of times per battle. After his ultimate summons Arsene for full-screen damage, his normal attacks gain extended range and amplified power. Allies can extricate him from enemy control, and if they succeed he gains temporary control immunity and a shield.

JOKER chooses the opposite-positioned enemy at the beginning as his Combat Target (CT). If the CT belongs to a non-Dimensional faction, JOKER will temporarily change factions in order to gain a factional damage bonus against the CT, but will also suffer from its adverse effects. When JOKER’s skills deal damage to an enemy whom he has a factional advantage against, the enemy will be knocked down for 2 seconds and then weakened. Weakened enemies receive 30% more damage over 5 seconds. Knock-down and weakening effects may only be used once every 7 seconds against the same target. If the CT is slain, JOKER will choose the enemy with the highest Combat Rating as his next CT.
Each time JOKER has used his Normal Attack 4 times, he will use his gun to deal 180% damage to his Combat Target.
When 3 or more enemies, or all enemies are controlled, All-Out Attack is triggered, dealing 300% damage to all enemies. This skill can only be used when there are surviving allies on the battlefield. This skill can be triggered once every 7 seconds and can be used up to a maximum of 3 times per battle. The damage caused by this skill will not trigger the effects of “Adverse Reaction”.
